[quote=Anonymous]My DS had the non-categorical global developmental delay and is catching up. He's in 4th grade and is on the percentile charts for testing now. We are seeing "low average" and "average" where we used to see "very low average" or "does not meet benchmark". Although not autistic, his recommended placement in K was with self-contained Enhanced Autism classroom because of it's 4:1 teacher ratio and focus on language development. As he gained language skills, we increased time in the Gen Ed room. Now, he no longer is self contained. He is in the GedEd classroom and gets pulled daily for Reading and Math (as needed) for instruction in the non-cat Special Ed. I don't think he would be catching up like this if he hadn't had the more intensive, self contained support early on. Maybe your school would consider this kind of approach. [/quote]
